I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Ranch Dressing

I love homemade dressings. They taste so much better than store bought. Easy to make, delicious, and inexpensive.



RANCH DRESSING 
(store in a pint jar)

Ingredients:
*1 cup mayonnaise
*1/4 cup sour cream
*1/4 cup buttermilk
*3 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced (1 tablespoon dried)
*1 1/2 teaspoons fresh dill, minced (1/2 teaspoon)
*1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
*1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce 
*1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
*1/4 teaspoon onion powder
*1/8 teaspoon salt
*1/2 teaspoon black pepper
*1/8 teaspoon dried chives (1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped small)


Directions:
~In a medium bowl, whisk together all ingredients.
~Cover (I use a pint jar) and refrigerate for 24 hours before using. (If you use it right away, it tastes more like mayo, than ranch)

Variations:
`Use reduced fat Mayo, & Sour Cream.

Helpful Hint:
-If it's to thick of a dressing for your liking, add 1/4 cup milk.
-If you want it more for dipping, substitute buttermilk for another 1/4 cup sour cream.
